Brands Story Published as to His Alleged Conduct a Falsehood Two Commissioners Air Views.
Patrol and ambulance driver, Lawrence Roberts, handed In his resignation to Superintendent George Stauhach yesterday afternoon as the result of charges preferred against him by the board of ' police commissioners. President Pettis A. Reid has called a meeting of the board for this evening at 7-JX o'clock to consider the matter. The resignation will undoubtedly be accepted, it is said. Roberts is alleged to have denied In very strenuous terms the charge that he had had Improper relations with Mrs. Cora Schaefer. . He is declared to have branded the article in Saturday evening's Palladium as a lie and Is said to have stated that he never visited the Schaefer woman at her home on Fort Wayne avenue. Roberts will probably leave the city immediately, it is said. Lichtenfela' Statement. President Reid, of the board, and J. 'A. LJchtenfels, one of the members, stated this morning that there never had been any ill feeling against Roberts on the part of members of the board, and the report that Roberta said the police board was "sore at him and taking this chance of getting even" Is untrue. Mr. Lichtenfels stated that he has known of Roberta's alleged misconduct for two or three weeks, and has been quietly investigating the affair, the result of which proved conclusively to him, he said, that Roberts was guilty of the charges preferred against him. Mr. Lichtenfels further stated that the board has notified Roberts on different occasions recently, that unless his conduct Improved his dismissal from the force would follow. It is not known who will be appointed In Roberts's place. At present Frank Xtemmert Is acting as patrol and ambulance driver.

(American News Service) Chicago, Sept. 20. Tex O'Reilly, he
ro of a score of pitched battles and myriads of gory encounters, stood at the La Salle street station and saw a train move majestically to the south. He sighed and shook his head. His brow wrinkled, his head bent, he pondered.
Half to himself and half to the
throng of open-mouthed youngsters who gazed at his gay sombrero, he murmured: "Chicago's too hell fired tough. I'm going home. Give me a one way ticket to San Antonio. What
train leaves next, and how fast does
he go?"
O'Reilly bought that ticket and ap
plied some terrible adjectives to Chi
cago.

O'Reilly has weathered the toughest spots of the entire earth. He was born in and raised near the Mexican border line in Texas, when the Lone
Star state was as wild and woolly as
the melodramas make it. He was a
newspaper man in San Antonio when the rattle of chips in the gambling houses disturbed public worship and when court adjourned every fifteen minutes to see who had been shot
But Texas was tamed, and O'Reilly
was compelled' to seek pastures. anew.
Aguinaldo was a very busy little per
son in the Philippines just at that
time. Blood was being shed.' and the
water cure given with pleasing fre
quency to a man of O'Reilly's daring nature. Thither O'Reilly traveled and
again he made a name for himself for deeds of daring and skill with revolver, Krag and bowie knife.
But Aguinaldo was captured by
O'Reilly and General Fred Funston, and the excitement was over. Hong-
Kong offered possibilities to a man of his nature, however, and O'Reilly hastened there. At the Chinese city, the
elect souls of badsmandom had assembled. O'Reilly, always siding with law and order, buckled on his sixshooter and tendered his services as
a policeman. Not many moons had passed before Hong-Kong was as tame
as a Sunday school picnic with the
preacher looking on. Chicago's levee district was at that time some place. The sandbag was not altogether unemployed, and stickup men. white slavers. Chinese tong8," "Black Hands" and several
other institutions flourished. O'Reilly came to Chicago. He cleaned out two
or tnree west side dives, leaving a trail of blood and consternation behind him, and in the day-time disport
ed himself chasing elusive news stor
ies for various Chicago publications.
He returned to San Antonio, but
could not remain idle. He was called
on to bear important messages
through the habitat of the bloodthirsty Yaquis, who were then on the war
path. He did so and simultaneously
the Yaquis disappeared from the news
The cayuse had been stolen and there
wasn't a lariat handy , to hang the horse thief if O'Reilly caught him. That is why O'Reilly sighed and bought the return ticket to San An
tonio, 'three days before his intended visit expired.
"I'm going back to where there's
nothing worse than bad men and cat
tle stampedes," he said. "I'm tired
of this strenuous life."

Notice that the society would appeal the case to the highest officials of the union has been served on the Indianapolis union and it is expected by members of St,

Mr. Hafner, upon learning several days ago that the Richmond City Band which is a non-union organization,
could not participate in the mammoth
parade at Indianapolis with the union bands, went to Indianapolis on Thursday and consulted with officials of the
musician's union. He was put off with excuses and given very shabby
treatment. He explained fully to the
officials that there were only four or
five union musicians in this city, and
that if a union band was employed, it
would have to be recruited ' from a number of other small cities. His explanation for the employment of a non-union band did not satisfy the Indianapolis executive board and he in
formed the board that as it did not see fit to accommodate the local delegation it would enter the parade any way with the non-union organization. This the local delegation did. However the officers of the society were met by W. a Mitchell, vice president of the Indianapolis Musicians' union, and told that if the non-union local band marched, the other five bands, which were union, would withdraw
from the parade. The grand marshal of the parade requested the local delegation to withdraw in order that the five union bands would not leave the ranks of the parade.

Cal., September 9, 1909. Addresses by the Rev. J. E. Cathell and Rev. David G. Huntington were the features of the memorial services. Dr. Cathell spoke in a beautiful
manner on the character of Dr. Wakefield and the earnestness with which he worked during his rectorship here.
A beautiful comparison between Nathanial and Dr. Wakefield was drawn by Dr. Cathell, who said that the quotation, "Behold an Isrealite in
whom there is no guile," might well be applied to Dr. Wakefield. Attention was called to the fact that there were

Huntington, who showed the high esteem in which Dr. Wakefield was held and the great love he bore for his congregation while rector in this city.
Numerous telegrams were read from Dr. Wakefield, which were sent to the local congregation on different occasions, such as Christmas and Easter, expressing a beautiful sentiment and showing the thoughtfulness of the
man at all times. Dr. Wakefield was the second pastor of the St Paul's rectory. The body will be brought to this city Wednesday for interment in Earlham cemetery.

As much damage was done to a city street car this morning when it struck Joe H. Mills's big touring car at Eighth and South A streets, as was done to the automobile.

Lewis Harris, chauffeur for Mr. Mills, was driving the car west on South A street. He started to run down on A street when be discovered that he could not pass at Seventh, owing to repairs on the street and so backed bis car back on Eighth street. As he started forward the engine went dead on him and the machine was struck by the street ear, breaking one of the rear wheels, puncturing a tire and bending a rear axle.
